Steam Summer Sale Begins and Developer/Publisher Homepages Now Exist

Today Steam began its Summer Sale for the year, which runs until July 5 and in addition to the myriad sales it is also giving gamers a chance to win games through the Saliens game. The Saliens game lets you create your own Salien and then take it to a planet to defend your Deal-tection Station so it can locate games. The different planets reward different games, if you are lucky enough to get one, and it is possible to enter to win games from multiple planets, but the time you spend on a planet impacts your chances.

Also started recently on Steam are Developer and Publisher Homepages, something I am personally happy to see. These pages feature the games from the relevant developer or publisher and by following them you get notified of new releases and deals show up in your recommendations.
